I have went through the documentation.

Following is the bit mapping of idle scaling register:
Reserved [31:28]
Fair Idle Delay [27:16]
Reserved [15:12]
Bus Idle Min [11:0]

'Bus Idle Min' field will indicate the number of ticks of the baud clock
required to program 'bus idle period' delay and can have maximum value of 4095.
'Fair Idle Min' field will indicate the number of ticks of the baud clock
required to program 'fair idle' delay and can have maximum value of 4095.

So, either the entire IDLE_SCALING_REG value can be in hex or I could do
something like below:

#define BUS_IDLE_MIN_TICKS <VALUE_IN_DECIMAL>
#define FAIR_IDLE_DELAY_TICKS <VALUE_IN_DECIMAL>

#define IDLE_SCALING_REG ((FAIR_IDLE_DELAY_TICKS << 16) | BUS_IDLE_MIN_TICKS)

Which of these 2 approaches do you feel is better?
